The History Of Gambling.

[Captain Corporate]

Greed is a curse. Lots of players want to be rich in a jiffy.
This lust for money is very terrible. Brings people to a terrible condition. Financially and psychologically both.
Gambling is not a good habit - so a balance is important whatsoever.

It is not even just about gambling, we are talking about people who wants to get super rich even in trading as well. I have seen so many people throw in hundreds of dollars to dozens of meme tokens in the past year, just because "if it reaches 1 dollar, then I won't have to work again". What they do not realize is that, it would be impossible for it to be a dollar and they are blind to reality .For example shiba, I have seen too many people think it could be 1 dollar, or 10 cents, or even 1 cent, which we all know is impossible becuase market cap of shiba would be higher than nasdaq and gold combined, hence won't happen. But they "believed" it could. Gamblers are the same way for sure, they do not see the house edge reality.

Anything that we do out of greed only results in the worst losses. We can't blame those who are aiming to get rich but aiming for it quickly without hard work is more like relying on luck which we all know is not reliable all the time. We should know our limits and control when it comes to gambling because the possibility of losing is always present no matter how big our capital is.

At every level people have to be punished for greed. That can be any platform in the world. Most of the time it is common to say accept gambling as a part of recreation. Because nobody will indulge here when it is taken as entertainment. And if he is not greedy then he can enjoy gambling.

Gambling is an addiction that leads 90% of people to greed and lose all their investments there. And many go there first for fun or entertainment, but afterwards they fall into an addiction, and a kind of man works among them which becomes the root of their ruin. So I think gambling is always a bad side

Sorry but I disagree with you.  Gambling isn't an addiction.  It is an activity where a person play games to have a chance to win money[1].  Though the uncontrollable urge to gamble is called gambling disorder which is considered gambling addiction.  And gambling addiction doesn't lead people to greed, it leads people to lose their belongings because of the need to bet more in order to get the same thrill.[2]  Gambling isn't  a bad side, gambling addiction is.

Can you provide a legit source showing that kind of statistics?

Where do you get that 90% of people lead to gambling addiction?

If it's just a guess, I will disagree with your figures. Addiction is really a problem in gambling but I'm pretty sure that there's a big percentage of gamblers that are still responsible for their gambling activity while at the same time, also responsible for their gambling behavior.

Gambling is a bad addiction - the financial stress is the worse of all.
Incase you don't have side hustle  and a good job -  you cannot you cannot get out of it that easily
So its better to stay away from gambling as much as possible - Its not a healthy activity

Whenever we are talking about addiction then it must be noted that not only in gambling we have this being effective, there are many areas where addiction is more worse than in gambling, i think gamblers should begin to learn how to hambke with caution, iy will be good enough if we do not deviate from the main importance of engaging in gambling which is pleasure satisfaction, every other things are additional benefits added.

I share that opinion with you, I would never say that, gambling is not a bad activity, there are only people who do not know how to interpret things, I respect the decision and opinion of each person, but they cannot generalize that gambling is bad, because of signatures like these is that in some countries they manage to ban games and casinos, that is something that can never be real, if people want to play in a casino they are free to do so.


If people fall into addiction it is because of them, because the control of the money is in the person who bets, but it is not in the game, I have not seen any game that says: Come and bet all your money or insist to do it, those are things that people have to understand.

Don't let us get this twisted, gambling is what you conclude it to be by yourself, not what anyone concludes for you. And some of the criteria to judge whether gambling is bad for you or not are your psychology towards gambling and why you are gambling, whether for money or fun.

Gambling could be good, particularly for someone like me who plans my engagements and is not addicted to it. It is fun at times when I am bored, and I use little money for my betting. I might even abstain for over 6 months without a single bet, so it is not bad for me. But for those that are so engrossed with it, it might be bad as long as it is now controlling them.

There is no chance of imposing one's own blame on others. As gambling does not force anyone to play. If you want to play or not to play. It should not be blamed on gambling or casino house. You can play here as you want. The biggest thing is to control oneself. Those who can control themselves are successful.

That's right mate, the final judgement must be made from the user's end which is the gambler after several considerations onbthe whole situation especially in football matches, we cannot undermine the impact of others view and approaches in the games, but as I've said earlier that the final judgement mist be from our end, you determine what you see, play and stake after several analysis

And some of the criteria to judge whether gambling is bad for you or not are your psychology towards gambling and why you are gambling, whether for money or fun.

Definitely every gambker must fall into either of these two categories, somebeven engage into gambling to whine away time in other to avoid boredom thereby making fun out of it not minding the cost in there.

I agree, that a person especially those who are addicted to gambling, should admit and take responsibility on whatever the result of their gambling activity is.  The Casino both online and landbase are just there to entertain people, it is up to us whether we will limit ourselves or not.  If ever we lost a lot of money, it is not the casino's fault, it is our own fault because we are the ones controlling the flow of our money.

One thing I want to mention here is that gambling is exciting but it is not a healthy hobby - it brings in trouble and stress and snatch all the wealth in a jiffy
so better safe than sorry
In our religion it is prohibited -like alcohol and adultery - these all mentioned above does not bring in any good . so better avoid them

I partially agree with you, gambling is indeed an exciting hobby but whether it is not healthy depends on us.  Even drinking a lot of colas is not healthy.  So anything in excess isn't good.

What is the difference between greediness and risk,

In this concept which has to do with gambling, one could be said to be "greedy" if he has a certain amount of money and yet not satisfied with the little or huge which he has, i.e always wanting to have that which belongs to others, and one can also be said to take "risk" when he/she tends to gamble all he has with the sole aim of doubling it, which he could either lose or gain

Greediness and risk both are almost the same, because we wager looking for an outcome. If the outcome is same as our prediction we'll be the winner, if not we lose. Whether it is greediness or risk, we need to have luck to win against the house.

[Silberman]

when becomes an adult then everyone has full responsibility for himself, everything that happens to him is the result of himself who cannot control his thoughts and actions, then it's not fair to say gambling is bad when there is only 1 person who becomes addicted out of 100 gamblers. Gambling has accompanied human life for thousands of years, and it will be like that for thousands of years to come.

Gambling should not be stressful at all, if it is then it is because the person that is gambling is using too much money and losing it when they need it for other expenses, if you can gamble with a small amount of money and you keep it under control then gambling can be not only exciting but incredibly relaxing as you can let go of all the stress that you have accumulated during the week due to your job and all of your obligations, so anyone that is getting so stressed when they gamble is gambling incorrectly if you ask me.

Greediness is worse than risk because the greed keeps you going even if you win as the human nature is so that it always wants more and more.While with risk you say I have this 100 dollars and I am going to risk it all on gambling and if you win (well greed keeps you going) but if you lose than you stop as you took a risk which didn't generate the results you were expecting.

That is a minor difference between these two but these can be the same for example when by risking we are winning which as I said leads to greed.

From my own of understanding of understanding something, i come to know that gambling which everybody is capitalizing that is not good from the way the understand and the way they do explain to people concerning gambling that is not good, but base on your explanation i understand that even though it's a food we consumed daily, having it excessively is very bad and harmful, so therefore i agree with you

I think gambling that doesn't cross the line is okay so as long as you don't try to cross the line, I guess that's fine too. But unfortunately, we know that many people have crossed that line and in the end, they have become addicted to gambling; in fact, many have forgotten their purpose. So if we use gambling too often and spend too much money, it can harm us so we need to control ourselves so as not to cross the line.

True! Gambling is meant/designed to be a mean of entertainment. People spend money on gambling to have fun with a small chance to get back their money or even make a profit which adds more fun.
If you feel unconftorbale when you gamble (ex. anxiety, stress, remorse...) then you are in it for the wrong reason like thinking it's a fast way to make money or because you are gambling more than you can afford to lose. In both cases, you should stop right away.

Since posts are written in this topic about the historical aspects of gambling, I think it is worth noting that modern generations of players, those who know how to have a fairly high standard of living, greed is not so relevant. And there are big differences between modern players and, for example, players in the Middle Ages. It seems to me that 4-5 centuries ago, greed was generally in the first place among the players. And all of them did not enjoy the game, as many now, but simply wanted to snatch more money. Also because a person in the Middle Ages was not at all smart, believed in all sorts of miracles and played only with a primitive thought,
to earn more. What do you think - am I right?

[traderethereum]

Theirs nothing like gain in gambling, what is actually happening in the gamblling is grace to succeed, talking of greediness is happening directly in gambling, because i know that some gambling like casino and poker game their is nothing like greedy because as a gambler you have your own target of getting what you want in gambling.

It is very difficult to make a profit from gambling and not many people can get it, but it still makes people keep trying.
And yes, if we win a few rounds, we will still keep trying to get a few more wins and that causes us to be greedy.
All gambling games are designed to give us the temptation to keep playing, whatever the results we get.
And if we don't realize it was a mistake, it's only a matter of time before we will suffer a major defeat.

There is something that I have seen, that I have read in some books, that sometimes greed is not bad if actions are taken that do not harm or harm others, what happens is that what greed encompasses are things that have to do harm, and not really make good decisions, I think I read it from an author with the last name Belarcázar, but in the same way things that have to do with the search for money, must be done with their own effort because the people who they get money by doing bad things, that money is dirty, and it would not yield anything.

It is better to earn money by working hard as it should always be done, this is something that should be applied in casino games and thus achieve better control of everything.
